Summary of Test Method4.1 Prior to each test run, the transmission is disassembled and all parts, including the case and the oil-circulating and heatingsystems, are thoroughly cleaned. The transmission is rebuilt with a new synchronizer assembly, includi
11、ng measured shifter fork,friction, and reaction disks. All other worn or defective parts are replaced.4.2 The rebuilt transmission is installed on a test stand.4.3 The transmission and oil system are flushed with the test oil in accordance with the flush procedure.4.4 The flush oil is drained, and t
12、he test oil is measured and charged to the transmission.4.5 The transmission is started and operated in low range until the oil temperature reaches the test operating range.4.6 The transmission is automatically cycled between low and high range until two unsynchronized shifts occur or the desiredlen
13、gth of test is reached without failure. The time required to shift from high range to low range is recorded each hour.4.7 At the conclusion of the test, the test parts are removed and visually inspected. The shifter fork and friction plates aremeasured again to determine wear.5. Significance and Use
14、5.1 This test method is used to evaluate automotive manual transmission fluids for thermal instability, which results indeterioration of synchronizer performance.5.2 This test method may also be utilized in other specifications and classifications of transmission and gear lubricants such asthe follo

16、quipment.6.2 Test TransmissionThe test transmission is a MACK T2180, configuration 11KBA51431 (see Fig. 1). Some parts in thetransmission are to be removed and some are to be added before testing, as listed in Table 2. The main box shift rail cover canbe replaced with an aluminum plate to facilitate
17、 transmission cleaning at end of test.6.3 Transmission MountsThe transmission is mounted as shown in Fig. 2.6.4 Oil-Circulating SystemThe system heats the oil to the specified operating temperature of 250 6 5F (121 C 6 2.7 C)and maintains this temperature throughout the duration of the test. The pow
18、er density of the heater is not high enough to causedegradation of the oil (22 to 25 W/in.2 (3.4 W/cm2 to 3.9 W/cm2). The oil flow rate is between 6 and 10 gal/min (23 L/min to38 L/min). A layout of the oil-circulation system is shown in Fig. 3. A detailed drawing of the recommended oil heating cham
19、beris shown in Fig. 4. The total oil capacity of the test system is 5.25 gal (19.87 L) with the oil level in the transmission at the loweredge of the fill hole. If the system capacity is too small, increase by lengthening oil hoses. When the system capacity is too great,decrease by shortening hoses,
20、 if it is practical to do so; otherwise, install an inert (stainless steel) block in the transmission mainbox sump to raise the oil level. Route the oil lines so that they will empty completely when draining the system.6.5 Oil Return HoleDrill and tap a hole in the compound case for the oil to retur
21、n after flowing through the heat exchanger.The location and size of this hole are shown in Fig. 5.D5579 1436.6 Air Pressure ControlsThe transmission is shifted by air pressure applied to alternating sides of the range shift piston. Theair pressure is provided by a pilot valve, which is cycled by a s
22、olenoid valve at a rate of 5 cpm. These cycles are recorded by acounter, which provides the cycles to mis-shift data for the pass/fail criteria of the test. A typical air control system is shown inFig. 6.6.7 Drive SystemIn the truck operation, opposing torques help the synchronizer to complete the s
23、hift. In the test stand, thetransmission is driven from the rear by an electric motor and belt drive with no loading on the input pinion. The torques, therefore,are not present, and shifting can be delayed. To help the synchronizer shift smoothly without the opposing torque, a vibration inthe drive
24、line is intentionally excited. The driveline is set out of phase by rotating the yoke at one end of the shaft with respectto the other by a one spline tooth offset (22). The transmission output shaft is offset from the shaft of the motor or jack shaft,thereby placing the driveline at an angle. A lay
25、out showing the offset of the transmission relative to the jack shaft is shown in Fig.2.6.8 InstrumentationSupply sensors and displays, either on the test console or in a data logging computer, as follows:6.8.1 Oil sump temperature,6.8.2 Countershaft speed,6.8.3 Tail shaft speed,6.8.4 Air pressure (
26、system),6.8.5 Air pressure (dynamic during shifting), and6.8.6 Coast down time.6.9 Thermocouple PlacementTransmission sump temperature is measured in the compound section of the transmission witha thermocouple and conventional display equipment. Drill and tap the compound case to accept the thermoco
27、uple at a positionlocated along the centerline of the transmission 8.0 in. (203 mm) forward of the back wall of the main case. Position the tip ofthe thermocouple to extend 1.5 in. (38 mm) into the sump. As a means of ensuring that the oil is not exposed to excessive heatin the heater, place an addi
28、tional thermocouple to measure the oil temperature leaving the heater as shown in Fig. 7.7. Reagents and Materials7.1 OilApproximately 12 gal (45.4 L) of test oil is required. The integrity of the test oil is the responsibility of the oil supplier.TABLE 1 Recommended Test Stand ComponentsItem Manufa
